WHAT IF… we could heal/repair soft tissue injuries such as shoulder tears, knee meniscus, cartilage tears? What would happen to one’s What would happen to What would happen to joint pain and pain management? productivity and longevity? replacement surgery and medical costs? Lets fix the injury not the complications of the injury 3
ORTHO RTi SNAPSHOT Ortho RTi is developing best-in-class medical products to heal shoulder and knee injuries using its proprietary technology • Founded in 2015 • Technology developed by Dr. Michael Buschmann, PhD, former Canada Research Chair in Cartilage Tissue Engineering at Ecole Polytechnique, now Bioengineering Chair at George Mason University • Headcount: 19, including 13 scientists under contract • Earlier product validated mode of action, clinical efficacy, and safety at 5 years • ~ $1 million non-dilutive Prima Grant for 2017-18, $12 million in research funding to date • Focused on developing technology for use in: • Shoulder rotator cuff repair • Knee meniscus and cartilage repair • Other commonly injured joints – elbow, ankle, hip, etc. 4
SOFT TISSUE INJURIES A LARGE UNMET NEED 4 million Americans with rotator cuff injuries and are at risk for disability • 25% of U.S. adults over the age of 40 develop a rotator cuff tear, with aging ‘weekend warriors’ escalating the problem • Only 600,000 surgeries are performed, with 50% failing within 6-12 months • 50% of rotator cuff tears progress in size in 3 years 2 million meniscal injuries annually; 16% of all orthopaedic surgeries • 1.2 million meniscal surgeries annually with (partial) removal the only option • Increasing at an average of 8% per year as population ages and remains active 1.7 million cartilage injuries detected annually; 125,000 treated 5
THE ORTHO PRODUCT A proprietary biopolymer (Sticky Scaffold) mixed with patient blood (Bioactive) in the OR • Freeze-dried in a standard vial Ortho injected at repair site • Fits seamlessly into current surgical procedures • Takes about 5 minutes • No additional equipment needed Advantages ü Biologically repairs tissue ü One-time, inexpensive procedure ü Low cost of goods (90%+ margins) ü Simple to manufacture ü Long shelf life at room temperature Rotator Cuff 6
ORTHO’S BIOPOLYMER STICKY SCAFFOLD Without Ortho Treatment With Ortho Treatment ORTHO TREATMENT (GREEN) RECRUITED CELLS (BLUE) 2 mm 2 mm Cells gone after 7 days: Cells present after 7 days: no cell residency or recruitment promotes residency and cell recruitment “Sticky scaffold” Activity • Stabilizes the blood clot in the injury • Impedes clot shrinkage • Sticks to the lesion surfaces 7
ORTHO TREATMENT A BIOACTIVE SCAFFOLD BLOOD VESSELS (PINK) 5 mm 50 µm Ortho subcutaneous treatment at 14 days “BioActivity” • Increases vascularization of tissues • Promotes tissue repair and regeneration 8

CLINICAL PLANNING ROTATOR CUFF Pilot clinical trial • 5+ clinical sites; 20-25 patients in each arm • Primary outcome will be safety (unexpected adverse events) Registration clinical trial • 15-25 sites in the U.S. and Canada, ~200 patients • 6 month enrollment • Primary outcomes will be pain and function at 6 months post operation • Health economic outcomes for payers will be included 15
REGULATORY PROGRESS Plan is to seek regulatory approval initially in the U.S. (world’s largest market) U.S. regulatory agent • M Squared Associates, Washington, DC and New York, NY • Experience with biopolymers and similar products Completed a pre-IND meeting with the U.S. FDA • Ortho will be regulated as a biologic • Obtained FDA feedback on development plan 16
